smartDEN IP-Maxi-MT - Modbus TCP I/O Relay Module with DIN RAIL BOX
smartDEN IP-Maxi-MT is an Ethernet module (IP controller) that can be used in a wide range of remote sensors monitoring, home automation control, environmental monitoring and data-acquisition applications. Thank to its multi-channel design (8 digital inputs, 4 analog inputs, 4 temperature inputs, 8 SPDT relays and 2 analog outputs) this device can perform simultaneously a variety of measurement and control functions. The web interface allows users to configure the smartDEN IP-Maxi-MT, as well as to monitor/control input/output channels. Supported by DRMv3 Software. smartDEN IP-Maxi-MT provides both Modbus-TCP and XML/JSON interface for integration with third-party developed applications. Works with Home Assistant, Domoticz and OpenHAB home automation systems as well as with Node-RED IoT platform.

Sensors
smartDEN IP-Maxi-MT is shipped with one NTC thermistor (temperature) sensor B57500M Epoxy Resin (up to 4 such sensors are supported by singe module). However additional sensors can be ordered from our store from these links:
The module has 4 analog inputs 0-10V which can be used also with every analog output sensor within this voltage range. You can check our other sensors as well for the analog inputs: LM35DZ (temperature), LM335Z (temperature), HIH-4000 (humidity), TSL250R (light), GP2Y0A21YK (proximity), Voltage Transducer 0-300V AC In, 0-10V DC Out, Current Transducer 0-50A AC In, 0-10V DC Out
Application Examples
Example 1. Controlling electrical appliances remotely
Example 2. Monitoring sensors online
Example 3. Controlling electrical devices depending on sensors values automatiacally (PC used only for configuration)
Example 4. Web based thermo-regulator
Example 5. smartDEN IP-Maxi-XX (including smartDEN IP-Maxi-MT) has the unique capability to act like "differential" thermoregulator (control relay depending on two analog inputs values difference)
Example 6. smartDEN IP-Maxi-MT used in application for counting customers in shops
Example 7. smartDEN IP-Maxi-MT analog outputs can be used for diming led lights (not directly, but using led driver 0/1 - 10V)
Control smartDEN IP-Maxi-MТ from Home Automation systems
